In case, the dividend amount is less than Rs. 500/-, then it will be compulsorily reinvested in the existing plan of the scheme, invested by the investor. The Trustee may decide to distribute by way of dividend, the surplus by way of realised profit, dividends and interest, net of losses, expenses and taxes, if any, to Unit-holders in the Dividend option of the Scheme if such surplus is available and adequate for distribution in the opinion of the Trustee. The Trustee’s decision with regard to availability and adequacy, rate, timing and frequency of distribution shall be final. The dividend will be due to only those Unit-holders whose names appear in the register of Unit Holders in the dividend option of the Scheme on the record date.

I. INTRODUCTION

A. RISK FACTORS

i. Standard Risk Factors:

1) Investment in Mutual Fund Units involves investment risks such as trading volumes, settlement risk, liquidity risk, default risk including the possible loss of principal.

2) As the price / value / interest rate of the securities in which the Scheme invests fluctuates, the value of your investment in the Scheme may go up or down, depending on the various factors and forces affecting the capital markets.

3) Past performance of the Sponsors/AMC/Mutual Fund does not guarantee future performance of the Scheme.

4) The name of the Scheme does not in any manner indicates either the quality of the Scheme or its future prospects and returns.

5) The Sponsors are not responsible or liable for any loss resulting from the operation of the Scheme beyond the initial contribution of an amount of Rs. 1 lakh made by it towards setting up the Fund.

6) ITI Arbitrage Fund is not a guaranteed or assured return Scheme.

ii. Scheme Specific Risk Factors:

The performance of the Scheme may be affected by changes in Government policies, general levels of interest rates and risks associated with trading volumes, liquidity and settlement systems, etc. Some of the Scheme specific risks are listed below: • There can be no assurance or guarantee that the arbitrage opportunities may exist at all times in the capital market. The lack of arbitrage opportunities shall not provide an opportunity to the Fund Manager to exploit price differences in the capital markets. • In case of heavy redemptions before the Expiry Day (last Thursday of every month or any day specified by the exchange), the liquidity and/or NAV of the Scheme might be affected. In such cases, the Fund Manager may be required to unwind positions in derivative segments before the Expiry Day, which may result in a fall in NAV. • The performance of the Scheme will depend on the ability of the Fund Manager to identify suitable opportunities in the cash and derivative market. No assurance can be given that Fund Manager will be able to locate investment opportunities or to correctly exploit price spread in the equity markets. There may be instances where the price spread between cash and derivative market is insufficient to meet the cost of carry. In such situations, the Fund Manager due to lack of opportunities in the derivative market, may not be able to outperform liquid/money market funds. In addition to this, there can be increase in number of transactions as the Fund Manager has to take simultaneous calls in cash and derivative market, which may lead to high portfolio turnover and consequently will lead to high transaction costs.

a) Risks associated with investing in Equities and Equity related Securities: The value of the Scheme’s investments may be affected generally by factors affecting securities markets, such as price and volume volatility in the capital markets, etc. Settlement periods and transfer procedures may restrict the liquidity of the investments made by the Scheme. The Scheme may face liquidity risk or execution risk or redemption risk or the risk of NAV going below par. At times, taking benefit of investing in Special Situations may involve certain risks like the promoter may choose not to accept the discovered prices or the Regulatory hurdles may delay any specific corporate action. For details, please refer SAI.

Risks related to Special situations: Special Situations are out of the ordinary situations that companies find themselves in, from time to time. Such situations present an investment opportunity to the Fund Manager who can judge the implications of that opportunity that can unlock value for investors. Such trades are subject to all such risks that any equity security may have; however in certain cases the risks can be more specific as mentioned below: • The promoter may choose not to accept the discovered prices; • Regulatory hurdles may delay any specific corporate action b) Risks associated with Fixed Income / Money Market instruments:

Interest rate risk: Price of a fixed income instrument generally falls when the interest rates move up and vice- versa. The extent of fall or rise in the prices depends upon the coupon and maturity of the security. It also depends upon the yield level at which the security is being traded. The NAV of the Scheme is expected to increase from a fall interest rates while it would be adversely affected by an increase in the level of interest rates. Spread risk: In a floating rate security the coupon is expressed in terms of a spread or mark up over the benchmark rate. In the life of the security this spread may move adversely leading to loss in value of the portfolio. The yield of the underlying benchmark might not change, but the spread of the security over the underlying benchmark might increase leading to loss in value of the security. Credit risk or default risk: Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a debenture/ bond or a money market instrument may default on interest and/or principal payment obligations. Even when there is no default, the price of a security may change with expected changes in the credit rating of the issuer. It is to be noted here that a Government Security is a sovereign security and is the safest. Corporate bonds carry a higher amount of credit risk than Government Securities. Within corporate bonds also there are different levels of safety and a bond rated higher by a particular rating agency is safer than a bond rated lower by the same rating agency. Liquidity & Settlement Risk: The liquidity of a fixed income security may change, depending on market conditions leading to changes in the liquidity premium attached to the price of such securities. At the time of selling the security, the security can become illiquid, leading to loss in value of the portfolio. Different segments of the financial markets have different settlement cycle/periods and such settlement cycle/periods may be impacted by unforeseen circumstances, leading to Settlement Risk. This can adversely affect the ability of the Fund to swiftly execute trading strategies which can lead to adverse movements in NAV. Reinvestment risk: Interest rates may vary from time to time. The rate at which intermediate cash flows are reinvested may differ from the original interest rates on the security, which can affect the total earnings from the security. Performance Risk: Performance of the Scheme may be impacted with changes in factors, which affect the capital market and in particular the debt market. Prepayment Risk: The Scheme may receive payment of monthly cash flows earlier than scheduled, which may result in reinvestment risk. Market risk: Lower rated or unrated securities are more likely to react to developments affecting the market as they tend to be more sensitive to changes in economic conditions than higher rated securities. c) Risks associated with Derivatives

Derivative products are leveraged instruments and can provide disproportionate gains as well as disproportionate losses to the investor. Execution of such strategies depends upon the ability of the fund manager to identify such opportunities. Identification and execution of the strategies to be pursued by the fund

Page 9: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

9

manager involve uncertainty and decision of fund manager may not always be profitable. No assurance can be given that the fund manager will be able to identify or execute such strategies. The risks associated with the use of derivatives are different from or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Trading in derivatives has the following risks:

a. An exposure to derivatives in excess of the hedging requirements can lead to losses. b. An exposure to derivatives can also limit the profits from a genuine investment transaction. c. Efficiency of a derivatives market depends on the development of a liquid and efficient market for the

underlying securities. d. Derivatives carry the risk of adverse changes in the market price. e. Illiquidity Risk i.e. risk that a derivative trade cannot be executed or reversed quickly enough at a fair

price, due to lack of liquidity in the market. The Fund may use derivatives instruments like equity futures & options, or other derivative instruments as permitted under the Regulations and Guidelines. Usage of derivatives will expose the Scheme to liquidity risk, open position risk, and opportunities risk etc. Such risks include the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of derivatives to correlate perfectly with underlying assets, rates and indices. In case of the derivative strategies, it may not be possible to square off the cash position against the corresponding derivative position at the exact closing price available in the Value Weighted Average Period. Debt derivatives instruments like interest rate swaps, forward rate agreements or other derivative instruments also involve certain risks. For details, please refer SAI. d) Common risk factors affecting the Arbitrage Strategies followed by this Scheme are as under:

Liquidity Risk: In case of Arbitrage trades, under abnormal circumstances it will be difficult to square off the transaction due to liquidity being poor in the underlying stock, stock futures or options market. However the fund will aim at taking exposure only into liquid stocks/derivatives where there will be minimal risk to square off the transaction. The fund will ensure this by analyzing historical data of volume and open interest.

Open position Risk: If the fund is not able to have a net market-neutral position due to any operational reasons, the scheme at times is exposed to movement in the prices of the underlying. The Scheme will endeavour to cover or square off the positions as soon as possible.

Opportunities Risk: For any arbitrage strategy, where the cost of carry reduces drastically (in a depressed market conditions), there will be less opportunity for fund manager to generate returns that can exceed money market returns. In absence of profitable arbitrage opportunities available in the market, the scheme may predominantly invest in cash, short term debt and money market securities.

Execution Risk: The prices which are seen on the screen need not be the same at which execution will take place.

Mark to Market Risk: Options arbitrage is a risk free strategy, however there could be a mark to market loss that would arise and additional margin may need to be provided for the same.

Basis Risk: In extraordinary circumstances, the Fund Manager may have to unwind positions before the expiry at a basis which maybe higher than the initiation basis to meet redemptions. Premature unwinding of the position might result in the locked in profits not getting realized.

Corporate Action Risk: In the case of arbitrage in corporate actions, the corporate action might get delayed due to regulatory hurdles or other unforeseen circumstances. This might affect the yield expected from the specific trade.

Tracking Error Risk: This risk is specific to Index arbitrage. Corporate actions such as demergers might result in the weights of the index stocks to change. This might lead to a tracking error affecting the returns to a certain extent.

e) Risks associated with investing in Securities Segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement

The mutual fund is a member of securities segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement of the Clearing Corporation of India (CCIL). All transactions of the mutual fund in government securities and in Tri-party Repo trades are settled centrally through the infrastructure and settlement systems provided by CCIL; thus reducing the settlement and counterparty risks considerably for transactions in the said segments. The members are required to contribute an amount as communicated by CCIL from time to time to the default fund maintained by CCIL as a part of the default waterfall (a loss mitigating measure of CCIL in case of default by any member in settling transactions routed through CCIL). CCIL shall maintain two separate Default Funds in respect of its Securities Segment, one with a view to meet losses arising out of any default by its members from outright and repo trades and the other for meeting losses arising out of any default by its members from Triparty Repo trades. The mutual fund is exposed to the extent of its contribution to the default fund of CCIL at any given point in time i.e. in the event that the default waterfall is triggered and the contribution of the mutual fund is called upon to absorb settlement/default losses of another member by CCIL, the scheme may lose an amount equivalent to its contribution to the default fund. f) Risks associated with transaction in Units through stock exchange(s):

In respect of transaction in Units of the Scheme through BSE and / or NSE (applicable to the facility to transact in the Units of the Scheme through the Stock Exchange mechanism provided by the AMC), allotment and redemption of Units on any Business Day will depend upon the order processing / settlement by BSE and / or NSE and their respective clearing corporations on which the Fund has no control.

g) Risks associated with Restrictions on Redemption: As outlined in Section I – ‘Restrictions on Redemptions’ the Trustee and the AMC may impose restrictions on redemptions when there are circumstances leading to a systemic crisis or event that severely constricts market liquidity or the efficient functioning of markets. Accordingly, such restriction may affect the liquidity of the Scheme and there may be a delay in investors receiving part of their redemption proceeds. B. REQUIREMENT OF MINIMUM INVESTORS IN THE SCHEME

The Scheme shall have a minimum of 20 investors and no single investor shall account for more than 25% of the corpus of the Scheme. However, if such limit is breached during the NFO of the Scheme, the Fund will endeavour to ensure that within a period of three months or the end of the succeeding calendar quarter from the close of the NFO of the Scheme, whichever is earlier, the Scheme complies with these two conditions. In case the Scheme does not have a minimum of 20 investors in the stipulated period, the provisions of Regulation 39(2)(c) of the SEBI (MF) Regulations would become applicable automatically without any reference from SEBI and accordingly the Scheme shall be wound up and the units would be redeemed at Applicable NAV. The two conditions mentioned above shall also be complied within each subsequent calendar quarter thereafter, on an average basis, as specified by SEBI. If there is a breach of the 25% limit by any investor over the quarter, a rebalancing period of one month would be allowed and thereafter the investor who is in breach of the rule shall be given 15 days notice to redeem his exposure over the 25 % limit. Failure on the part of the said investor to redeem his exposure over the 25 % limit within the aforesaid 15 days would lead to automatic redemption by the Mutual Fund on the Applicable Net Asset Value on the 15th day of the notice period. The Fund shall adhere to the requirements prescribed by SEBI from time to time in this regard.

Investors are advised to refer to the terms and conditions of the offer before investing in the scheme, and to retain this SID and SAI for future reference. Right to Limit Redemptions

Subject to the approval of Board of Directors of the AMC and Trustee Company and immediate intimation to SEBI, a restriction on redemptions may be imposed by the Scheme when there are circumstances, which the AMC / Trustee believe that may lead to a systemic crisis or event that constrict liquidity of most securities or the efficient functioning of markets such as:

1. Liquidity issues - when market at large becomes illiquid affecting almost all securities rather than any

issuer specific security.

2. Market failures, exchange closures - when markets are affected by unexpected events which impact the functioning of exchanges or the regular course of transactions. Such unexpected events could also be related to political, economic, military, monetary or other emergencies.

3. Operational issues – when exceptional circumstances are caused by force majeure, unpredictable operational problems and technical failures (e.g. a black out). Such cases can only be considered if they are reasonably unpredictable and occur in spite of appropriate diligence of third parties, adequate and effective disaster recovery procedures and systems.

Such restriction on redemption may be imposed for a specified period of time not exceeding 10 working days in any 90 days period. However, if exceptional circumstances / systemic crisis referred above continues

Page 13: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

13

beyond the expected timelines, the restriction may be extended further subject to the prior approval of Board of Directors of the AMC and Trustee Company giving details of circumstances and justification for seeking such extension shall also be informed to SEBI in advance.

Procedure to be followed while imposing restriction on redemptions a. No redemption requests upto Rs. 2 lakhs per request shall be subject to such restriction;

b. Where redemption requests are above Rs. 2 lakhs:

i. The AMC shall redeem the first Rs. 2 lakhs of each redemption request, without such restriction; ii. Remaining part over and above Rs. 2 lakhs shall be subject to such restriction and be dealt as under:

- Any Units which are not redeemed on a particular Business Day will be carried forward for Redemption to the next Business Day, in order of receipt.

- Redemptions so carried forward will be priced on the basis of the Applicable NAV (subject to the prevailing Load, if any) of the subsequent Business Day(s) on which redemptions are being processed.

Under such circumstances, to the extent multiple redemption requests are received at the same time on a single Business Day, redemptions will be made on a prorate basis based on the size of each redemption request, the balance amount being carried forward for redemption to the next Business Day.

II. INFORMATION ABOUT THE SCHEME

A. NAME &TYPE OF THE SCHEME

ITI Arbitrage Fund is an open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities.

B. WHAT IS THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE OF THE SCHEME?

The investment objective of the Scheme is to generate income by predominantly investing in arbitrage opportunities in the cash and derivative segments of the equity markets and the arbitrage opportunities available within the derivative segment and by investing the balance in debt and money market instruments. However, there is no assurance that the investment objective of the scheme will be realized.

C. HOW WILL THE SCHEME ALLOCATE ITS ASSETS?

The Scheme will aim to have a fully hedged portfolio to meet its Investment Objective.

Under normal circumstances, the asset allocation pattern will be as follows:

Instruments Indicative allocations (% of net

assets) Risk Profile

Maximum Minimum High/Medium/Low Equity & Equity related instruments including derivatives 100% 65% Medium to High

Debt instruments (including floating rate debt instruments and securitized debt)* with maturity up to 91 days only

35% 0% Low

Under defensive circumstances, the asset allocation would be as follows:

Instruments Indicative allocations (% of net assets)

Risk Profile

Maximum Minimum High/Medium/Low Equity & Equity related instruments including derivatives 35% 0% Medium to High

Debt instruments (including floating rate debt instruments and securitized debt)* with maturity up to 91 days only

100% 65% Low

*securitized debt cumulative allocation not to exceed 30% of the net assets of the Scheme.

The Scheme will not invest in Foreign Securities and ADRs/GDRs issued by Indian or foreign companies. The Scheme will not invest in Stock Lending and Short Selling.

Note:

Defensive circumstances are when the arbitrage opportunities in the market are negligible or returns are lower than alternative investment opportunities as per the allocation pattern. The allocation under defensive circumstances will be made keeping in view the interest of the Unit holders. Such position will be closely monitored by the Fund Managers and necessary rebalancing will be done at suitable opportunity but not later than 30 days.

The margin money requirement for the purposes of derivative exposure will be held in the form of Term Deposits, cash or cash equivalents or as may be allowed under the Regulations.

Money Market Instruments include CPs, commercial bills, Corporate Debt, T-Bills, and Government securities having an unexpired maturity upto one year, CDs, usance bills, Tri Party Repos, Repo/ Reverse Repo and any other like instruments having a maturity of 1 year or less, as specified by the RBI from time

Page 21: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

21

to time. The above percentages are indicative and not absolute.

Further,

The Scheme shall not invest in credit default swaps, repos in corporate bonds and foreign securities. The Scheme shall not engage into securities lending and borrowing.

The Scheme can take derivative exposure upto a limit as stated in the tables above. The total exposure related to options premium paid will not exceed 20% of the net assets of the Scheme.

The Scheme may enter into plain vanilla interest rate swaps for hedging purposes. Exposure to a single counterparty in such transactions will not exceed 10% of the net assets of the Scheme.

The cumulative gross exposure through equity, debt and derivative positions will not exceed 100% of the net assets of the Scheme. However, cash or cash equivalents with residual maturity of less than 91 days may be treated as not creating any exposure.

The Scheme may undertake repo/reverse repo transactions in Corporate Debt Securities as per latest SEBI guidelines.

From time to time, the Scheme may hold cash and/or invest in the Tri Party Repo or repo to meet the liquidity requirements.

The Scheme may also invest in other schemes managed by the AMC or in the schemes of any other Mutual Fund within the regulatory limits, provided it is in conformity with the investment objectives of the Scheme.

Pending deployment of funds of the Scheme in securities in terms of the investment objective of the Scheme, the AMC may park the funds of the Scheme in short term deposits of scheduled commercial banks, subject to the guidelines issued by SEBI vide its circular dated April 16, 2007, as amended from time to time.

While it is the intention of the Scheme to maintain the maximum/minimum exposure provided in the tables above, there may be instances when these percentages may be exceeded on short term defensive considerations. Typically, this may occur while the Scheme is new and the corpus is small thereby causing diversification issues or there exist no suitable equity and equity related opportunities or due to unusual / unforeseen conditions, such rebalancing is not in the interest of Unit holders. Unusual conditions include, but are not limited to, extreme volatility of the stock market, fixed income and money markets, natural calamities, communication breakdowns, internal system breakdowns, strikes, bandhs, riots or other situations.

Change in Asset Allocation:

Subject to the Regulations, the asset allocation pattern indicated above may change from time to time, keeping in view market conditions, market opportunities, applicable regulations and political and economic factors. It must be clearly understood that the percentages stated above can vary substantially depending upon the perception of the Fund Manager, the intention being at all times to seek to protect the interests of the Unit holders. Such changes in the investment pattern will be for short term and defensive considerations. The Scheme reserves the right to invest its entire allocation in debt and money market securities in any one of the fixed income security classes.

In the event of the asset allocation falling outside the limits specified in the asset allocation table, the Scheme will rebalance the portfolio within 30 days. However, if market conditions do not permit the Fund Manager to rebalance the portfolio of the Scheme within the stipulated period of 30 days, justification for the same shall be provided to the Investment Committee and the reason for the same shall be recorded in writing. The Investment Committee shall then decide on the course of action.

Subject to the above, any change in the asset allocation affecting the investment profile of the Schemes shall be effected only in accordance with the provisions of sub regulation (15A) of Regulation 18 of the Regulations, as detailed later in this document.

D. WHERE WILL THE SCHEME INVEST?

Subject to the Regulations, the corpus of the Scheme will mainly be invested in any (but not exclusively) of the following securities: 1. Investment in Equity securities: The Scheme will invest in Equity and Equity related instruments including equity derivatives. Derivatives: The Scheme may invest in Derivative Instruments to the extent permitted under SEBI Circulars DNPD/Cir-29/2005 dated September 14, 2005, DNPD/Cir-29/2005 dated January 20, 2006, SEBI/DNPD/ Cir-31/2006 dated September 22, 2006 and CIR/IMD/ DF/11/2010 dated August 18, 2010 on ‘Trading by Mutual Funds on Exchange Traded Derivatives’ as amended from time to time. Derivative products are specialized instruments that require investment techniques and risk analysis different from those associated with stocks and bonds. The use of derivatives requires an understanding not only of the underlying instrument but also of the derivative instruments itself. The Scheme may invest in the following Equity Derivative Instruments like:

i. Futures: A futures contract is an agreement between the buyer and the seller for the purchase and sale of a particular asset at a specific price on a specific future date. The price at which the underlying asset would change hands in the future is agreed upon at the time of entering into the contract. The actual purchase or sale of the underlying asset involving payment of cash and delivery of the instrument does not take place until the contracted date of delivery. A futures contract involves an obligation on both the parties to fulfill the terms of the contract. Currently, futures contracts have a maximum expiration cycle of 3-months. A futures contract on the stock market index gives its owner the right and obligation to buy or sell the portfolio of

Page 24: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

24

stocks characterized by the index. Stock index futures are cash settled; there is no delivery of the underlying stocks.

ii. Options: An option is a contract which provides the buyer of the option (also called the holder) the right, without the obligation, to buy or sell a specified asset at an agreed price on or upto a particular date. For acquiring this right the buyer has to pay a premium to the seller. The seller on the other hand has the obligation to buy or sell that specified asset at the agreed price. The premium is determined considering number of factors such as the underlying asset’s market price, the number of days to expiration, strike price of the option, the volatility of the underlying asset and the risk less rate of return. The strike price, the expiration date and the market lots are specified by the exchanges. An option contract may be of two kinds, viz., a call option or a put option. An option that provides the buyer the right to buy is a call option. The buyer of the call option (known as the holder of the option) can call upon the seller of the option (known as writer of the option) and buy from him the underlying asset at the agreed price at any time on or before the expiry date of the option. The seller of the option has to fulfill the obligation on exercise of the option. The right to sell is called a put option. Here, the buyer of the option can exercise his right to sell the underlying asset to the seller of the option at the agreed price. Options are of two types: European and American. In a European option, the holder of the option can only exercise his right on the date of expiration. In an American option, he can exercise this right anytime between the purchase date and the expiration date.

iii. Other derivative instruments: The Scheme may also invest in debt derivative instruments like Interest Rate Swaps, Forward Rate Agreements or such other debt derivative instruments as may be introduced from time to time. An Interest Rate Swap (IRS) is a financial contract between two parties exchanging a stream of interest payments for a notional principal amount on multiple occasions during a specified period. Typically, one party receives a pre-determined fixed rate of interest while the other party, receives a floating rate, which is linked to a mutually agreed benchmark with provision for mutually agreed periodic resets. A Forward Rate Agreement (FRA) is basically a forward starting IRS. It is an agreement between two parties to pay or receive the difference between an agreed fixed rate (the FRA rate) and the interest rate (reference rate) prevailing on a stipulated future date, based on a notional principal amount for an agreed period. The only cash flow is the difference between the FRA rate and the reference rate. As is the case with IRS, the notional amounts are not exchanged in FRA. To hedge & balance the portfolio, derivative instruments like Interest Rate Swaps & Forward Rate Agreements may be used to create synthetic fixed rate bonds/ floating rate bonds. We wish to submit that, creation of synthetic fixed rate bonds/floating rate bonds is a hedging and portfolio rebalancing technique. An example is stated below to explain the said proposition.

Swaps can be used to create synthetic fixed rate instruments. Let us take an example of a 1 Year Floating Rate Bond with a spread of 50 bps (basis points) over a benchmark say, Overnight MIBOR. Ordinarily, this fetches the investor a yield of the benchmark (which is floating) plus 50 bps on an annualized basis. However, by receiving 1 yr fixed rate on the swap side, what happens is that the bond gets converted into a fixed rate bond. Let us assume that the 1 year swap on the same benchmark is received for the same principal amount at the rate of 8.00%. Step A: Investor receives Overnight MIBOR + 50 bps on the Floating Rate Bond Step B: Investor enters into a 1 year OIS transaction – Investor receives fixed rate of 8% & Investor pays floating rate i.e., Overnight MIBOR, Net impact for the investor: (MIBOR + 50 bps) + 8% - MIBOR = 8.00% + 50 bps = 8.50% (Fixed) Thus through the swap, the floating rate bond gets converted ‘synthetically’ into a fixed rate bond.

2. Investment in Debt securities: • Commercial paper (CP) is an unsecured negotiable money market instrument issued in the form of a promissory note. CPs is issued by corporates as an alternative source of working capital finance. They are issued at a discount to face value, as may be determined mutually by the issuer & investor. CP is traded in secondary market and can be freely bought and sold before maturity.

Page 25: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

25

• Certificates of Deposit (CD) is a negotiable money market instrument issued by scheduled commercial banks and select all-India Financial Institutions (FIs) that have been permitted by RBI to raise short-term resources. The maturity period of CDs issued by the banks is between 7 days and one year. FIs can issue CDs for a period not less than 1 year and not exceeding 3 years from the date of issue. CDs also are issued at a discount to face value and can be traded in secondary market akin to CPs. • Government securities: The Scheme intends to invest its assets in securities of Government of India and /or State Government to the extent of SEBI prescribed limits, if any. Such securities may be: i. Supported by the ability to borrow from the Treasury or ii. Supported by Sovereign guarantee or the State Government or iii. Supported by Government of India / State Government in some other way. The above will depend upon the

nature of securities invested. Central Government Securities are a sovereign debt obligation of the Government of India with zero- risk of default and are issued on its behalf by the RBI. They form a part of the Government’s annual borrowing program, and are used to fund the fiscal deficit along with other short and long-term fund requirements. Central Government Securities are normally fixed interest securities where the interest is paid semi- annually. Different types of Central Government Securities are the fixed interest securities, fixed interest security with put/call option, fixed interest security where the subscription amount is paid in installments, fixed interest security where the maturity amount is received in installments, floating rate bond, capital-indexed bond and zero-coupon bonds. State government securities are issued by the respective State governments in co-ordination with the RBI. State Government Securities are fixed interest securities where the interest is paid semi- annually. • Treasury Bills (T-Bills) are issued by the Government of India to meet their short-term borrowing requirement. Presently, T-Bills are issued for original maturities of 91 days, 182 days and 364 days. T-Bills are issued at a discount to their face value and redeemed at par. • Short Term Deposits are deposits with Banks for a fixed term at a rate which is determined by various factors such as the term, the amount etc. Pending deployment as per investment objective, the corpus of the Scheme may be invested in short- term deposits of Scheduled Commercial Banks as provided under the Regulations. • Tri party Repo is a money market instrument that enables entities, to borrow and lend against sovereign collateral security. It is in electronic form. The maturity ranges from 1 day to 90 days and can also be made available up to 1 year. Central Government Securities including T-bills are eligible securities that can be used as collateral for borrowing through Tri Party Repo. • Repo (Repurchase agreement): A Repo or Reverse Repo is a transaction in which two parties agree to sell and repurchase the same security. Under such an agreement the seller sells specified securities with an agreement to repurchase the same at a mutually decided future date and price. Similarly, the buyer purchases the securities with an agreement to resell the same to the seller on an agreed date at a predetermined price. The transaction results in Tri-party repo. Such a transaction is called a Repo when viewed from the perspective of the seller of the securities and borrower of funds and Reverse Repo when viewed from the perspective of the buyer of the securities and lender of funds. The eligible securities for a repo/reverse repo transaction in the Indian financial markets at present are Government Securities, State Government Securities and Treasury Bills. The Scheme may enter into Reverse Repo, hedging or such other transactions as may be allowed to Mutual Fund from time to time.

• Non Convertible Debentures as well as Bonds are securities issued by Public Sector Enterprises, Public Sector Banks, All India Financial Institutions, Private Sector Companies etc for their normal business activities, which may be secured or unsecured against assets of the company. This is one of the sources of financing for corporates which may be in the nature of short term or long term depending on the requirement of the entity. They are priced at a spread over the corresponding government security depending on the level of perceived risk. Different types of securities are fixed interest securities with or without put/call option, fixed interest security where the maturity amount is received in installments, floating rate bonds, zero- coupon bonds (bonds with no intervening interest cash flows) etc. Frequency of interest payments could be annual/ semi-annual/quarterly/monthly or zero coupon bonds etc depending on each issue. • Floating rate debt instruments are debt instruments issued by Central / State governments, Corporates, PSUs, etc. with interest rates that are reset periodically. The periodicity of interest reset could be daily, monthly, quarterly, half yearly, and annually or any other periodicity that may be mutually agreed between the issuer and the Fund. For details on definition & Risk associated with investment in the above security, please refer SAI. 3. Investments in the Schemes of Mutual Fund The Scheme may invest in schemes managed by the AMC or in the schemes of any other Mutual Fund, provided it is in conformity with the investment objectives of the Scheme and in terms of the prevailing the SEBI Regulations. As per the SEBI Regulations, no Investment Management fees will be charged for such investments and the aggregate inter scheme investment made by all schemes in the schemes of the Mutual Fund or in the schemes under the management of any other asset management company shall not exceed 5% of the Net Asset Value of the Mutual Fund. 4. Any other like instruments as may be permitted by RBI/ SEBI/ such other Regulatory Authority from time to time. The above-mentioned securities could be listed, unlisted, secured, unsecured, rated or unrated and may be acquired through Primary, secondary market offerings, private placements, rights offer etc. Further, investments in debentures, bonds and other fixed income securities will usually be in instruments, which have been assigned investment grade ratings by an approved rating agency. In cases where the debt instrument is unrated, specific approval from the Board of the Asset Management Company and the Board of Trustees shall be obtained. However, the same shall be subject to limitations as contained in clause 1 and 1A, of Schedule VII to SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996. Securitised Debt Obligations - Securitization is a structured finance process which involves pooling and repackaging of cash-flow producing financial assets into securities that are then sold to investors. They are termed as Asset Backed Securities (ABS) or Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS). ABS are backed by other assets such as credit card, automobile or consumer loan receivables, retail installment loans or participations in pools of leases. MBS is an asset backed security whose cash flows are backed by the principal and interest payments of a set of mortgage loans. Such Mortgage could be either residential or commercial properties. Pass through, Pay through or other Participation Certificates, representing interest in a pool assets including receivables. It represents beneficial interest in an underlying pool of cash flows. These cash flows represent dues against single or multiple loans originated by the sellers of these loans. Cash Management Bills Government of India, in consultation with the Reserve Bank of India, issue a new short-term instrument, known as Cash Management Bills (CMBs), to meet the temporary cash requirement of the Government. The CMBs have the generic character of T-bills but are issued for maturities less than 91 days. Like T-bills, they are also issued at a discount and redeemed at face value at maturity.

The following are certain additional disclosures w.r.t. investment in securitized debt: (i) How the risk profile of securitized debt fits into the risk appetite of the scheme Securitized debt is a form of conversion of normally non- tradable loans to transferable securities. This is done by assigning the loans to a special purpose vehicle (a trust), which in turn issues Pass-Through-Certificates (PTCs). These PTCs are transferable securities with fixed income characteristics. The risk of investing in securitized debt is similar to investing in debt securities. However it differs in two respects: a) Typically the liquidity of securitized debt is less than similar debt securities. b) For certain types of securitized debt (backed by mortgages, personal loans, credit card debt, etc.), there is

an additional pre-payment risk. Pre-payment risk refers to the possibility that loans are repaid before they are due, which may reduce returns if the re-investment rates are lower than initially envisaged. Because of these additional risks, securitized debt typically offers higher yields than debt securities of similar credit rating and maturity. If the fund manager judges that the additional risks are suitably compensated by the higher returns, he may invest in securitized debt up to the limits specified in the asset allocation table above.

(ii) policy relating to originators based on nature of originator, track record, NPAs, losses in earlier securitized debt, etc The originator is the person who has initially given the loan. The originator is also usually responsible for servicing the loan (i.e. collecting the interest and principal payments). An analysis of the originator is especially important in case of retail loans as this affects the credit quality and servicing of the PTC. The key risk is that of the underlying assets and not of the originator. For example, losses or performance of earlier issuances does not indicate quality of current series. However such past performance may be used as a guide to evaluate the loan standards, servicing capability and performance of the originator. Originators may be: Banks, Non Banking Finance Companies, Housing Finance Companies, etc. The fund manager / credit analyst evaluates originators based on the following parameters • Track record. • Willingness to pay, through credit enhancement facilities etc. • Ability to pay. • Business risk assessment, wherein following factors are considered:

- Outlook for the economy (domestic and global). - Outlook for the industry. - Company specific factors.

In addition a detailed review and assessment of rating rationale is done including interactions with the originator as well as the credit rating agency. The following additional evaluation parameters are used as applicable for the originator / underlying issuer for pool loan and single loan securitization transactions: • Transaction structure including Par versus premium and credit enhancement • Reputation of Originator in the market • Proportion of overdue assets of the pool or the underlying loan, as the case may be • Track record of servicing of the pool or the loan, as the case may be • Any disputes or litigations in the originated pools • Credit quality and rating • Loan to Value ratio • Liquidity facility (iii) Risk mitigation strategies for investments with each kind of originator Risk would be mitigated to a large extent by the critical evaluation parameters mentioned above. Further, Risk mitigation strategies typically include additional credit enhancement, overcollateralization, interest subvention, presence of subordinate

Page 28: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

28

tranches, analysing ageing of the pools i.e. how long the loan has been with Originator before securitization etc. Some of the risks with securitized debt investments and the corresponding risk mitigating strategies are listed below: Risk mitigation strategy Limited Recourse, Delinquency and Credit Risk In addition to careful scrutiny of credit profile of borrower/ pool additional security in the form of adequate cash collaterals and other securities may be obtained to ensure that they all qualify for similar rating. Bankruptcy of the Originator or Seller Normally, specific care is taken in structuring the securitization transaction so as to minimize the risk of the sale from the Originator not being construed as a ‘true sale’. It is also in the interest of the originator to demonstrate the transaction as a true sale to get the necessary revenue recognition and tax benefits. Liquidity and price risk Securitized debt instruments are relatively illiquid in the secondary market and hence they are generally held to maturity. The liquidity risk and HTM (Held To Maturity) nature is taken into consideration at the time of analyzing the appropriateness of the securitization. Pre-payment Risk A certain amount of prepayments is assumed in the calculations at the time of purchase based on historical trends and estimates. Further, a stress case estimate is calculated and additional margins are built in. (iv) The level of diversification with respect to the underlying assets, and risk mitigation measures for less diversified investments. In case of securitization involving single loans or a small pool of loans, the credit risk of the borrower is analyzed. In case of diversified pools of loans, the overall characteristic of the loans is analyzed to determine the credit risk. The credit analyst shall look at ageing (i.e. how long the loan has been with the originator before securitization) as one way of judging the performance potential of the PTC. Additional risk mitigants may include interest subvention, over collateralization, presence of an equity / subordinate tranche and / or guarantees. The credit analyst shall also use analyses by credit rating agencies on the risk profile of the securitized debt. Framework that will be applied while evaluating investment decision relating to a pool securitization transaction:

Note 1: In case of securitization involving single loans or a small pool of loans, the credit risk of the borrower is analyzed. The investment limits applicable to the underlying borrower are applied to the single loan sell-down. Note 2: Other investments will be decided on a case-to-case basis. The credit analyst may consider the following risk mitigating measures in his analysis of the securitized debt: • Size of the loan – The size of the loan is generally analysed on a sample basis and an analysis of the static pool of the originator is undertaken to ensure that the same matched with static pool characteristics. It also indicates whether there is high reliance on very small ticket size borrower which could result in delayed and expensive recoveries. • Average original maturity of the pool – the analysis of the average maturity of the pool is undertaken to evaluate whether the tenor of the loans are generally in line with the average loan in the respective industry and repayment capacity of the borrower. • Loan to value ratio, average seasoning of the pool of underlying assets – these parameters will be evaluated based on the asset class as mentioned in the table above. • Default rate distribution – the credit team generally ensures that all the contracts in the pool are current to ensure zero default rate distribution. • Geographical distribution – the analysis of geographical distribution of the pool is undertaken to ensure prevention of concentration risk. • Credit enhancement facility – credit enhancement facilities in the form of cash collateral, such as fixed deposits, bank guarantee etc. could be obtained as a risk mitigation measure. • Liquid facility – these parameters will be evaluated based on asset class as mentioned in the table above. • Structure of the pool of the underlying assets – The structure of the pool of the underlying asset class or combination of various asset classes as mentioned in the table above. We could add new asset class depending upon the securitization structure and changes in market acceptability of asset classes. (v) Minimum retention period of the debt by originator prior to securitization Issuance of securitized debt is governed by the Reserve Bank of India. RBI norms cover the “true sale” criteria including credit enhancement and liquidity enhancements. In addition, RBI has proposed minimum holding period before they can be securitized. The minimum holding period depends on the tenor of the securitization transaction. The Fund will invest in securitized debt that are compliant with the laws and regulations. (vi) Minimum retention percentage by originator of debts to be securitized RBI has prescribed the minimum retention percentage as 5% or 10% of the book value of the loans being securitised depending on the original maturity of the loans and the features of the securitisation transaction.

30

(vii) The mechanism to tackle conflict of interest when the mutual fund invests in securitized debt of an originator and the originator in turn makes investments in that particular scheme of the fund The key risk is securitized debt relates to the underlying borrowers and not the originator. In a securitization transaction, the originator is the seller of the debt(s) and the fund is the buyer. However, the originator is also usually responsible for servicing the loan (i.e. collecting the interest and principal payments). As the originators may also invest in the scheme, the fund manager shall ensure that the investment decision is based on parameters as set by the Investment Committee of the asset management company and the committee shall review the same at regular interval. (viii) The resources and mechanism of individual risk assessment with the AMC for monitoring investment in securitized debt The fund management team has the required experience to analyse and monitor investments in securitised debts. On an on-going basis the rating movement of the securitised debts will be monitored. Credit research agencies also provide analysis of individual instruments and pools. The periodic reports received by the AMC on pool performance will be scanned to check for any change in asset quality and related impact on debt servicing and any impact that it can have on the credit ratings. Note: The information contained herein is based on current market conditions and may change from time to time based on changes in such conditions, regulatory changes and other relevant factors. Accordingly, our investment strategy, risk mitigation measures and other information contained herein may change in response to the same.

E. WHAT ARE THE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES?

The Scheme will invest in arbitrage opportunities between spot and futures prices of exchange traded equities and the arbitrage opportunities available within the derivative segment. If suitable arbitrage opportunities are not available in the opinion of the Fund Manager, the Scheme may invest in short term debt and money market securities. The Fund Manager will evaluate the difference between the price of a stock in the futures market and in the spot market. If the price of a stock in the futures market is higher than in the spot market, after adjusting for costs and taxes the scheme shall buy the stock in the spot market and sell the same stock in equal quantity in the futures market, simultaneously. The Scheme will endeavor to build similar market neutral positions that offer an arbitrage potential for e.g. buying the basket of index constituents in the cash or futures segment and selling the index futures, etc. The Scheme would also look to avail of opportunities between one futures contract and another. The margin money requirement for the purposes of derivative exposure will be held in the form of Term Deposits, cash or cash equivalents. Derivative & Arbitrage Strategies: Derivatives are financial contracts of pre-determined fixed duration, whose values are derived from the value of an underlying primary financial instrument, index, such as: interest rates, exchange rates and equities. The Scheme will invest in arbitrage opportunities between spot and futures prices of exchange traded equities. The Scheme may build similar hedge positions that offer an arbitrage potential for example buying the basket of index constituents in the cash or futures segment and selling the index futures, and selling the corresponding stock future, etc. The Scheme will also invest in low risk derivatives strategies. These strategies will involve any combination of cash, futures and options. The Scheme will invest in opportunities arising out of corporate actions announced in stocks that offer superior risk adjusted returns and IPOs.

1. Cash Future Arbitrage: This strategy is employed when the price of the future is trading at a premium to the price of its underlying in spot market. The Scheme shall buy the stock in spot market and endeavor to simultaneously sell the future at a premium on a quantity neutral basis. Buying the stock in spot market and selling the futures results into a hedge where the Scheme has locked in a spread and is not affected by the price movement of cash market and futures market. The arbitrage position can be continued till expiry of the future contracts. The future contracts are settled based on the last half an hour’s weighted average trade of the spot market. Thus there is a convergence between the spot price and the futures market on expiry. This convergence helps the Scheme to generate the arbitrage return locked in earlier. On or before the date of expiry, if the price differential between the spot and futures position of the subsequent month maturity still remains attractive, the scheme may rollover the futures position and hold onto the position in the spot market. In case such an opportunity is not available, the scheme would liquidate the spot position and settle the futures position simultaneously. Rolling over of the futures transaction means unwinding the short position in the futures of the current month and simultaneously shorting futures of the subsequent month maturity, and holding onto the spot position. Illustrations Buy 100 shares of Company A at Rs 100 and sell the same quantity of stock’s future of the Company A at Rs 101. 1. Market goes up and the stock end at Rs 200. At the end of the month (expiry day) the future expires automatically: Settlement price of future = closing spot price = Rs 200 Gain on stock is 100*(200-100) = Rs 10,000 Loss on future is 100*(101-200) = Rs – 9,900 Net gain is 10,000 – 9,900 = Rs 100 2. Market goes down and the stock end at Rs 50. At the end of the month (expiry day) the future expires automatically: Settlement price of future = closing spot price = Rs 50 Loss on stock is 100*(50-100) = Rs – 5,000 Gain on future is 100*(101-50) = Rs 5,100 Net gain is 5,100 – 5,000 = Rs 100 Unwinding the position: Buy 100 shares of Company A at Rs 100 and sell the same quantity of stock’s future of the Company A at Rs 101. The market goes up and at some point of time during the month (before expiry) the stock trades at Rs 120 and the future trades at Rs 119 then we unwind the position: Buy back the future at Rs 119: loss incurred is (101- 119)*100= Rs – 1,800 Sell the stock at Rs 120: gain realized: (120-100)*100 = Rs 2,000 Net gain is 2,000 – 1,800 = Rs 200 Rolling over the futures: We keep the stocks position. Close to expiry, if the stocks price is at Rs 150 then the stock’s future is close to Rs 150 as well. Also if the current month stock future is below the next month stock future, we roll over the future position to the next expiry:

Page 32: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

32

Stock future next month is at Rs 151 Stock future current month is at Rs 150 Then sell future next month at Rs 151 and buy back actual future at Rs 150 = gain of 100*(151- 150) = Rs 100 and the arbitrage is continuing. 2. Index Arbitrage: The Nifty 50 derives its value from fifty constituent stocks; the constituent stocks (in their respective weights) can be used to create a synthetic index matching the Nifty Index. Also, theoretically, the fair value of a future is equal to the spot price plus the cost of carry. Theoretically, therefore, the pricing of Nifty Index futures should be equal to the pricing of the synthetic index created by futures on the underlying stocks. Due to market imperfections, the index futures may not exactly correspond to the synthetic index futures. The Nifty Index futures normally trades at a discount to the synthetic Index due to large volumes of stock hedging being done using the Nifty Index futures giving rise to arbitrage opportunities. One instance in which an index arbitrage opportunity exists is when Index future is trading at a discount to the index (spot) and the futures of the constituent stocks are trading at a cumulative premium. The fund manager shall endeavour to capture such arbitrage opportunities by taking long positions in the Nifty Index futures and short positions in the synthetic index (constituent stock futures). Based on the opportunity, the reverse position can also be initiated. Index Arbitrage (Spot market): This strategy is very similar to the index arbitrage strategy explained above. This strategy can be executed when the index future is trading at a premium to the underlying index. The Fund Manager will buy the index constituents (ratio of weights in the index) in the spot market and simultaneously sell the index future at a premium. On expiry day, the futures expire at cash. This convergence helps realize the profits locked-in. 3. Portfolio protection/ Hedging: The Scheme may use exchange-traded derivatives to hedge the equity portfolio. Illustrations of hedging using options– Call Option (Buy): The fund buys a call option at the strike price of say Rs.1000 and pays a premium of say Rs. 50, the fund would earn profits if the market price of the stock at the time of expiry of the option is more than 1050 being the total of the strike price and the premium thereon. If on the date of expiry of the option the stock price is below Rs 1000, the fund will not exercise the option while it loses the premium of Rs. 50. Put Option (Buy): The fund buys a Put Option at Rs 1000 by paying a premium of say Rs 50. If the stock price goes down to Rs. 900, the fund would protect its downside and would only have to bear the premium of Rs 50 instead of a loss of Rs 100 whereas if the stock price moves up to say Rs. 1100 the fund may let the Option expire and forego the premium thereby capturing Rs. 100 upside after bearing the premium of Rs. 50. The Scheme may use both index and stock futures and options to hedge the stocks in the portfolio. 4. The Scheme may use derivative instruments like Interest rate swaps like Overnight Indexed Swaps (OIS), Forward rate agreements, or such other derivative instruments as may be introduced from time to time. Derivatives will be used for the purpose of hedging, increasing the returns of the Scheme and portfolio balancing as may be permitted under the Regulations and Guidelines. Investment strategy while using Overnight Indexed Swaps: In a rising interest rate scenario the Scheme may enhance returns for the investor by hedging the risk on its fixed interest paying assets by entering into an OIS contract where the Scheme agrees to pay a fixed interest rate on a specified notional amount, for a predetermined tenor and receives floating interest rate payments on the same notional amount. The fixed returns from the Scheme’s assets and the fixed interest payments to be made by the Scheme on account of the OIS transaction

Page 33: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

33

offset each other and the Scheme benefits on the floating interest payments that it receives. The Scheme may enter into an opposite position in case of a falling interest rate scenario, i.e., to hedge the floating rate assets in its portfolio the Scheme enters into an OIS transaction wherein it receives a fixed interest rate on a specified notional amount for a specified time period and pays a floating interest rate on the same notional amount. The floating interest payments that the Scheme receives on its floating rate securities and the floating interest payments that the Scheme has to pay on account of the OIS transaction offset each other and the Scheme benefits on the fixed interest payments that it receives in such a scenario. 5. Other Arbitrage Derivative Strategies: The Scheme will also invest in arbitrage opportunities arising out of corporate actions (e.g. – mergers, FPO, delisting, open offers, etc). These are just a few examples of arbitrage opportunities arising out of corporate actions. This is not an exhaustive list as every corporate action could offer a different and unique opportunity. The Scheme may also use derivative instruments as may be introduced from time to time, with the underlying being any of the stocks in a recognized stock exchange. The Scheme may deploy one or more of the above mentioned derivative Strategies to the extend they are in line with the investment objective of the Scheme. Special Situations (Corporate Actions) The Scheme may take advantage of situations that present an investment opportunity to Fund Manager who can judge the implications of that opportunity that can unlock value for investors. Some of these situations are Merger of businesses or companies which may result in synergies in business activities. Demerger may result in separation / spin-off of business operation / activity from some other business operation / activity., Companies may consider a buy-back of their shares from the market due to various reasons (like company has substantial free reserves, management is confident of the future growth potential, meeting with the regulatory norms, etc.) and unlock significant value for shareholders. Companies may consider delisting their companies from the respective stock exchange. It may be at the request of the promoters, acquisitions; BIFR under SICA etc., Company may offer its existing shareholders a right to purchase additional shares at a discount to the prevailing market price. A company may want to infuse capital for future projects, raise its holding as it expects good prospects going forward. A carefully analyzed rights issue can unlock value for shareholders; Open Offer is an event that increases the share holding of the acquirer. An open offer can be voluntary or involuntary. An open offer is an indication that parties are interested in increasing their stake in the company. This can be positive for the company over the long run and gives the investor a signal for good times ahead, Debt restructuring i.e. a company may want to change its capital structure by means of reducing debt. Higher debt can lead to lower profits and cash flows. An attempt by the company to reduce debt or swap the same with other lower costs options can unlock value for shareholders. There could by many other events that may result in share price appreciation. Such situations may include; turnarounds, companies undergoing restructuring, asset plays, and companies affected by regulatory changes and primary market listings. The scheme will carefully analyze any such instance and participate in the same as such; corporate action often unlocks a lot of value for the investors Strategy for investments in Debt/ Money Market Instruments: To achieve its investment objective, the Scheme may also invest, in Debt Instruments which are listed/unlisted and/or rated/unrated debt or money market instruments/securities, securities issued/ guaranteed by the Central/State Governments, securities issued by public/private sector companies/corporations, short term deposits with banks like Fixed Deposits, financial institutions and/or money market instruments such as commercial paper, certificates of deposit, permitted securities under a reverse-repo agreement, etc. These instruments may carry a fixed rate of return or a floating rate of return or may be issued on a discounted basis. Investments will be made in instruments, which in the opinion of the Fund Manager, are of an acceptable credit quality and chance of default is minimum while conforming to the internal broad guidelines provided in the Investment Policy. The Fund Manager will generally be guided by, but not restrained by, the ratings announced by various rating agencies and independent in-house assessment on the assets in the portfolio. The fund management team with the support of research team will take an active view of the interest rate movement by keeping a close watch on various

Page 34: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

34

parameters of the Indian economy, as well as developments in global markets. Investment views / decisions will be taken on the basis of the following parameters: 1. Prevailing interest rate scenario 2. Quality of the security / instrument (including the financial health of the issuer) 3. Maturity profile of the instrument 4. Liquidity of the security 5. Growth prospects of the company / industry 6. Any other factor in the opinion of the fund management team Investment in Mutual Fund Units: To avoid duplication of portfolios and to reduce expenses, the Scheme may also invest in scheme managed by the AMC or in the scheme of other Mutual Fund, provided that aggregate inter- scheme investment made by all schemes managed by the AMC either in its own schemes or of any other Mutual Fund shall not exceed 5% or such other permitted limit, of the Net Asset Value of the Fund. No investment management fees shall be charged for investing in other schemes of the fund or in the schemes of any other Mutual Fund. Risk Control: ITI Arbitrage Fund will allocate assets predominantly in arbitrage opportunities between spot and futures prices of exchange traded equities and the arbitrage opportunities available within the equity derivative segment and the balance in debt and money market instruments. This allocation will be steadily monitored and it shall be ensured that investments are made in accordance with the Scheme objective and within the regulatory and internal investment restrictions prescribed from time to time. This Scheme offers lower risk alternative to pure diversified equity funds due to its investment strategy. Since disciplined investing requires risk management, the AMC would incorporate adequate safeguards for controlling risks in the portfolio construction process. The fund has designed a detailed process to identify, measure, monitor and manage the portfolio risk. The aim is not to eliminate the risk completely but to have a structured mechanism towards risk management thereby maximizing potential opportunities and minimize the adverse effects of risk. Few of the key risk identified are:

Debt and Money Markets in India

The Indian debt market is today one of the largest in Asia and includes securities issued by the Government (Central & State Governments), public sector undertakings, other government bodies, financial institutions, banks and corporates. Government and public sector enterprises are the predominant borrowers in the markets. Securities in the debt market typically vary based on their tenure and rating. The major players in the Indian debt markets today are banks, financial institutions, mutual funds, insurance companies, primary dealers, trusts, pension funds and corporates. The Indian debt market is the largest segment of the Indian financial markets. The debt market comprises broadly two segments, viz. Government Securities market or G-Sec market and corporate debt market. The latter is further classified as market for PSU bonds and private sector bonds. The Government Securities market is the oldest and the largest component of the Indian debt market in terms of market capitalization, outstanding securities and trading volumes. The G-Sec market plays a vital role in the Indian economy as it provides the benchmark for determining the level of interest rates in the country through the yields on the Government Securities which are referred to as the risk-free rate of return in any economy. Over the years, there have been new products introduced by the RBI like zero coupon bonds, floating rate bonds, inflation indexed bonds, etc. The corporate bond market, in the sense of private corporate sector raising debt through public issuance in capital market, is only an insignificant part of the Indian Debt Market. A large part of the issuance in the non- Government debt market is currently on private placement basis.

The money markets in India essentially consist of the call money market (i.e. market for overnight and term money between banks and institutions), reverse repo transactions (temporary buy with an agreement to sell the securities at a future date at a specified price), commercial papers (CPs, short term unsecured promissory notes, generally issued by corporates), certificate of deposits (CDs, issued by banks) and Treasury Bills (issued by RBI) and similar securities. In a predominantly institutional market, the key money market players are banks, financial institutions, insurance companies, mutual funds, primary dealers and corporates. In money market, activity levels of the Government and non government debt vary from time to time.

Apart from these, there are some other options available for short tenure investments that include MIBOR linked debentures with periodic exit options and other such instruments. PSU / DFI / Corporate paper with a residual maturity of less than 1 year are actively traded and offer a viable investment option.

Following table exhibits various debt instruments along with current yields as on May 31, 2020.

(Source: Bloomberg, NDS OM and CCIL) These yields are indicative and do not indicate yields that may be obtained in future as interest rates keep changing consequent to changes in macro-economic conditions and RBI policy. The price and yield on various debt instruments fluctuate from time to time depending upon the macro economic situation, inflation rate, overall liquidity position, foreign exchange scenario etc. Also, the price and yield vary according to maturity profile, credit risk etc.

In case, the correct code is not received within 30 calendar days, the AMC shall reprocess the transaction under Direct Plan from the date of application without any exit load. Default Option – Growth Default facility under Dividend Option – Reinvestment (i) Growth Option The Mutual Fund will not declare any dividends under this option. The income earned under this Option will remain invested in the option and will be reflected in the NAV. This option is suitable for investors who are not looking for current income but who have invested with the intention of capital appreciation. (ii) Dividend Option Under this option, dividends will be declared at periodic intervals at the discretion of the Trustees, subject to availability of distributable surplus calculated in accordance with SEBI (MF) Regulations. On payment of dividend, the NAV of the Units under dividend option will fall to the extent of the dividend payout and applicable statutory levies, if any. Dividend option offers (i) Dividend Payout; and (ii) Dividend Reinvestment facility. It must be distinctly understood that the actual declaration of dividend and frequency thereof is at the sole discretion of Board of Trustee. There is no assurance or guarantee to the Unit holders as to the rate of dividend distribution nor that the dividend will be paid regularly. Dividend Payout Facility Under this facility, dividend declared, if any, will be paid (subject to deduction of dividend distribution tax and statutory levy, if any) to those Unit holders, whose names appear in the register of Unit holders on the notified record date. If dividend payable under dividend payout option is less than Rs. 500/-, then the dividend would be compulsorily reinvested in the option of the Scheme.

Dividend Reinvestment Facility Under this facility, the dividend due and payable to the Unit holders will be compulsorily and without any further act by the Unit holder, reinvested in the dividend option at a price based on the prevailing ex-dividend Net Asset Value per Unit on the record date. The amount of dividend re-invested will be net of tax deducted at source, wherever applicable. The dividends so reinvested shall constitute a constructive payment of dividends to the Unit holders and a constructive receipt of the same amount from each Unit holder for reinvestment in Units. On reinvestment of dividends, the number of Units to the credit of Unit holder will increase to the extent of the dividend reinvested divided by the Applicable NAV.

There shall, however, be no Load(s) (if any) on the dividend so

B. ONGOING OFFER DETAILS:-

Ongoing Offer Period This is the date from which the Scheme will reopen for subscriptions /redemptions after the closure of the NFO period.

The Scheme being an ongoing Scheme the Units of the Scheme are available for subscription / redemption at applicable NAV based prices, subject to prevalent load provisions, if any.

Ongoing price for subscription (purchase)/switch-in (from other Schemes/Plans of the Mutual Fund) by investors. This is the price you need to pay for purchase/Switch-in.

Units of the Scheme shall be available for subscription (purchase)/switch- in at the Applicable NAV.

Ongoing price for redemption (sale) / switch outs (to other schemes/plans of the Mutual Fund) by Investors.

This is the price you will receive for redemptions/ Switch outs.

Example: If the applicable NAV is Rs.10, exit load is 2% then redemption price will be:

Rs.10* (1-0.02) = Rs.9.80

Units of the Scheme can be redeemed/ switched out at the Applicable NAV subject to prevailing exit load.

The Repurchase Price however, will not be lower than 93% of the NAV and the Sale Price shall not be higher than 107% of the NAV subject to SEBI Regulations as amended from time to time. Similarly, the difference between the Repurchase price and Sale price at any point in time shall not exceed the permitted limit as prescribed by SEBI from time to time which is presently 7% calculated on the Sale Price.

Methodology of calculation of repurchase price:

For calculating the repurchase price, the exit load applicable at the time of investment shall be deducted from the applicable NAV of the Scheme.

For example: If the applicable NAV of the Scheme is Rs. 11 and the Exit

Page 55: ITI ARBITRAGE FUND...SCHEME INFORMATION DOCUMENT ITI ARBITRAGE FUND (An open ended scheme investing in arbitrage opportunities) New Fund Offer Opened on August 20, 2019 Continuous

55

Load applicable at the time of investment is 1% if redeemed before completion of 1 year from the date of allotment of units and the investor redeems units before completion of 1 year, then repurchase price will be calculated as follows:

Step 1: Applicable NAV * Exit Load at the time of investment in % = Exit Load Amount; i.e. Rs. 11 * 1% = Rs. 0.11;

Step 2: Applicable NAV - Exit Load Amount = Repurchase price; i.e. Rs. 11- Rs. 0.11 = Rs.10.89.
